Dude, I found out that Filmation Founder Lou Schiemer did last year a few weeks ago. Cartoonists, animators, voice actors... guys like that rarely get coverage unless they're huge names in their field. I'm surprised Jerry Nelson got the coverage he did, though BOTH the Emmys and Academy Awards...

I admit he was a good Mario. Too bad he was the only thing well done about that film. He's been in a lot of great things too, that was just the one weak point. And it was circumstances beyond his control. We'll all remember his more poignant roles, Eddie Valliant, and the fact he makes a...

Tell me about it. It's been dreary, murky, and freezing for days. It saps all the energy out of me. I just dealt with freaking 5 months of this to look forward to more of it?! REALLY?!?!

As long as they don't make Cookie Monster the almost Neon light blue they give him in merchandising. Anyone ever wonder why they do that, when he's usually darker? Anyway, do they even bother with the Fix-it shop anymore? Other than the fact Luis and Maria have much less screen time, I don't...

Lionsgate clearly wants more money. They charge for the crappy Rambo cartoon too. And I definitely know no kid wants to watch that. Adults just want to watch it ironically, and barely that. I LOVE ALF, but I find the cartoon series to be superior to the sitcom in every way. It's such a...

The cast has been announced The newcomers are relatively low key, and that seems to be the common thread behind every Star Wars film. Hopefully, most of them will leave the film with a career.

Kaboom is publishing a new Uncle Grandpa comic book series...errrrr.... I don't know how that's going to work, but if it's anything like the cartoon pushing the boundaries of the medium, I'd LOVE to see how that would apply to comics. The real question is, will Giant Flying Realistic Tiger be a...

All I can say is, they should try for one more film in a couple years and then make a decision. Just don't release it late in a month that wasn't meant to be kind to any other film there was. they may not have got the amount of money the film should have made, but at least they didn't lose...

CGI is sooooo not as cost effective as they say. Cheap, crappy CGI is, but there's a reason why CN couldn't wait to get rid of Beware the Batman. Puppetry also displays a crapload of cost dissonance. The only real advantage over puppetry is in the technical field, managing to work around...

ALF was a series of other skits where he replaced the Alien in the Aliens movies. And he didn't die once.

Dane Cook shouldn't even have a career. 90% of my hated of Planes comes from the fact he starred in it. Not even the fact Disney shoves it in your face, even though it's not nearly as successful as Cars was. Just his unfunny terrible presence ruins the film. The fact they even gave him a...

Because cartoon writers are all in their 30's, and actually remember the show from when it was first broadcast? What really surprised me was the Little Nemo/Tales of a Rarebit Fiend reference at the end. I don't think anyone who isn't a comics scholar or under the age of 80 would get that one...

Ah, the series fauxnalie. NBC really doesn't know what its doing, but you have to give them credit for keeping Community and Parks and Rec around this season due to their cult status alone. They're the only comedies NBC considers successful (man, am I disappointed about Michel J Fox, but glad...

I'm just happy they didn't kill off Ernie, Bert, OR ALF. The killing off kid's favorite jokes have been done to... well... death. (and they killed Handy Smurf off anyway, but that was kinda funny and important to the skit). But the one joke I really liked was Ernie pulling off his nose and...

Robot Chicken does it again. Ernie and Bert split up as roomates, and Bert gets a new one off of Craigslist... with obvious results. And they used some Muppet Show Palisades accessories in the background, of course.

Classic Game Room review of Big Bird's Egg Catch

Unfortunately for you, the late 80's was the rise of Elmo's stardom. Muppet fans always tend to forget that. He was different enough as a character at the time, though.

The more I revisit the Seinfeld finale, the more I realize how apt and fitting it was. I mean, it was a show about borderline sociopaths that rarely got comeuppance, for one. They finally had to deal with the repercussions of their actions, essentially. And they brought back almost every...

Unless Disney didn't get everything after the buyout of the Muppet characters, I doubt that's the case. Even if it were, we'd at least see digital versions of the VHS releases they themselves did back in the 90's. I'd say that Disney wants the Muppet Babies out of the franchise so far...

..and Honestly, if these guys think that a sadistic, borderline White Slave Trader of a cartoon bear will ruin their reputation, they haven't seen kids actually buy Lotso toys. Hopefully, they only felt guilt ridden. I was sure that Lotso would be the shelf warmer, being the darkest villain...
